01/09/26: In response to Emile
It was unkind of me to state “this is different" without elaborating. Thank you for calling me out.
I was merely referring to the technical side of things:
- One here, we can do as much or as little as we want of those steps (eg: index, transcript)
- His website — responsive images and little Chrome — looks great!

Is I said, that is 100% besides the point. It vas just a surprise to type in a familiar URL and get something different!

PS thank you for your note, and for the stewardship of this website. Man, it feels good to get a handwritten note!

Honestly not so sure how I feel about this. My knee-jerk reaction, having seen the original handwritten blog, was that it did not match Daniel’s original approach. After some time, having come to appreciate that's entirely besides the point, and in a world of adversarial relations between server and client:

* accessible, semantic HTML with (formally) well-written prose is taken as an "LLMism", inviting calls for the author to "prove" their humanity
* readers/users/clients are forced to "prove" their humanity

Sucky place to be in. But I can see how handwriting can be a workaround.
